Chapter 556: The Voice Is Still The Same

(Judging from the subscriptions, I feel like no one is following me anymore. Unexpectedly, the author persisted and successfully kept readers away. I laughed and cried.)

For several days in a row, Jiang Xiao and Fan Binbin stayed together. Occasionally they would secretly go out in full gear to buy some things. The rest of the time, they basically stayed at home.

Sometimes we watch movies together, sometimes we do aerobics together, we go out for exercise together, sometimes we cook and eat together, and sometimes we read books together. Our little days are quite relaxed and leisurely.

It wasn't until September 2nd, when "Inception" was officially released in China, that Jiang Xiao had to take the time to go to a certain movie theater to support the movie.

Before 2003, only China Film was eligible for distribution of imported films. After 2003, there was an additional Chinese film company, so there was competition.

This time "Inception" was distributed by China Film, and he also received the invitation from China Film, not Warner.

The main reason is that Warner is not qualified to distribute movies in China. It is a relatively passive party, and its share is relatively low, only 25%. This is after the WTO, and it was even lower before.

The international standard is considered to be a general standard, which is about 35%, which is quite different. China is still relatively strong in this regard.

Anyway, when Jiang Xiao came to the scene, he discovered that China Film had also invited some other stars and celebrities to support the show.

There are directors Guan Hu and Liang Jing. They are a couple, so are they packaged?

What Jiang Xiao didn't expect was that he also saw Lin Zhiling appear, which was a bit surprising.

The other person, who is in his thirties, looks like he has become something.

In addition, she is indeed quite tall and her figure is well managed, making her a bright sight.

The only thing is that the shape of the legs is really... ugly.

It's Sister Shi's invincible long legs that are truly beautiful. He has studied them in detail, and they are absolutely convincing.

If Lin Zhiling wanted to wear a long skirt, it could still be covered up, but today she wore leather pants, and her shortcomings were perfectly exposed. I don't know what she thought of this dress.

Speaking of which, Jiang Xiao and the other party are considered acquaintances. After all, the other party was invited to play a guest role in "Partners in China" from time to time.

Of course, his interaction with Lin Chiling only went so far.

In addition, there were some professionals in the industry, whom Jiang Xiao didn’t recognize very well.

As for the real creator of "Inception", other than him, no one else made a special trip to China.

It is quite realistic. Even though the Chinese film market is growing at an alarming rate every year, in the end the original market is too small. It was only about one billion in 2002. For some well-known reasons, it was as low as only a few hundred million in 03.

But now the total domestic box office, as of 2009, has reached a little over 7 billion.

It must be far more than the number in Jiang Xiao's memory. This is definitely the change brought about by him, which has slightly stimulated the development of the domestic film market.

The situation this year is also relatively good. At the beginning of the year, "Avatar" sold more than one billion yuan a movie, which shocked the entire industry and made people see the huge potential of the film market.

"Phoenix Earthquake", which was released during the summer vacation, grossed more than RMB 600 million at the box office, which obviously gave the industry great confidence and will inevitably accelerate the entry of capital.

Although a swarm of bees is not necessarily a good thing, it will produce a lot of bubbles and false prosperity.

But this is the law of the market, and we always have to go through such a process.

The waves wash away the sand, but what remains in the end is the real gold.

And Jiang Xiao had the foresight to find genuine gold sand and catch bugs that others did not have.

Regardless of this, when he finally appeared in a simple blue casual suit, the flashbulbs immediately connected and questions were thrown at him one after another.

In response, Jiang Xiao had no choice but to raise his voice slightly and said: "Please ask one question one by one, from left to right, otherwise I don't know how to answer which of you is better."

Just like that, after his signal, the scene quickly became orderly. The first male reporter on the left immediately organized a question and asked: ""Inception" has received nearly 700 million worldwide.

Based on the US dollar box office, how much box office do you think this movie can get in China?"

"This still depends on the support of the audience. Of course, I also believe that the viewing experience that "Inception" brings to the audience will not be inferior to "Transformers 2", so I must express my expectations. I hope that "Inception" will not lose to "Transformers 2".

The box office of "Inception" can exceed the box office of "Transformers 2"."

The domestic box office performance of "Inception" is not bad, and it seems to be quite close to "Transformers 2", but Jiang Xiao doesn't remember clearly whether it surpassed it or not.

But he believes that now that he has participated in the film, even if it is just a supporting role, it will definitely bring greater box office potential.

In short, after answering this, Jiang Xiao immediately reminded him: "Next one."

"Will you focus your work on Hollywood next?"

"No, the focus will still be on the country."

Jiang Xiao, who didn't explain much about this point, only gave an affirmative answer.

There's nothing to explain, and there's really no need to elaborate on this matter.

"Can you tell us about the new movie you are filming in Rio? What kind of role are you playing?"

"Okay, actually this is the fifth part of a series of movies. The fourth part has also been released in China. It's called "The Fast and the Furious~". It's an action racing movie. I play a policeman, that's about it."

"So in this new drama, will you have a lot of action scenes? Will it be a challenge for you?"

"Yes, there were a lot of action scenes, and the challenges were pretty good. For some scenes that were more dangerous and difficult, the director suggested using a stunt double, but I wasn't brave enough to say no, so the whole filming process was actually pretty good."

"So what's the difference between filming on a Hollywood crew and supporting a domestic crew?"

Another reporter followed the question asked by the previous reporter.

"There are definitely differences. We can't be arrogant and pretend not to see the level of the Hollywood film industry. There are indeed many merits. I learned a lot after filming the two movies."

"We also look forward to using it to improve ourselves and produce better works to give back to the audience."

Jiang Xiao responded eloquently.

"Jiang Xiao, do you have any plans for your next new drama?"

"Yes, it will be a new attempt, a type that has not been seen in China before. I won't go into details, but you can look forward to it."

Films like "Train to Busan" are indeed relatively new in China.

Jiang Xiao has also confirmed that his next movie will be this movie.

Of course, "If You Are the One" is a "special appearance" and can be skipped.

"Excuse me, Jiang Xiao, do you have a girlfriend?"

"I...your turn is a bit sudden, but I won't answer personal questions!"

When the next female reporter asked such a question, Jiang Xiao, who was almost stunned by his habitual thoughts, was... fortunately, he responded quickly.

After finishing, seeing that the answers were similar, he simply took advantage of the situation and prepared to retreat and continued: "Okay, that's all for now. I also ask everyone to support the movie "Inception", thank you!"

Just like that, Jiang Xiao quickly left the interview site, entered the screening room, and started watching the movie.

~~~~

"Pa~pa~pa!!!"

It's night, in a certain room, this is the main sound.

Ten minutes later.

"Pa~pa~pa!!!"

The sound remains the same.

Half an hour later.

"Pa~pa~pa!!!"

The sound is still the same and cannot stop at all.

After a long, long time.

"Pa~pa~pa!!!"
Chapter completed!
